Once for every struct/class, which is much better than once for every individual resource used.

  You don't need to do it for every individual resource used, specially if the language has support for meta-programming. I guess these FP patterns are yet to be widely known.

    The biggest difference between RAII and other approaches based on higher order functions and closures is that RAII is bound to object lifetimes, while other approaches are bound to scopes. They compose differently.

      Not valid when using pointers and references. And then you need to add smart something into the mix. Which is no different than using resources from scoped pools.
